Do I have to do a make installworld when make world is finished? If you don't, it doesn't get installed. > 4. Is there any way to build with optimisations for a PIII? like -O6 > or --march-i686 ? make CFLAGS="-O6 -march=i686" buildworld (or put it in /etc/make.conf) (By the way, don't build with anything but -O, or you may get unexpected optimization bugs. If you value reliability, use -O.)
